A Renewed Liquidity Surge in Total Crypto Market Cap

The current crypto market dynamic is undeniably bullish. The TOTAL index, representing the global market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies, has recorded a notable progression, adding $21 billion to its valuation in a single day. This movement suggests a return of risk appetite from both institutional and retail investors.

Unlike simple intraday volatility, this consolidated rise indicates that buyers are defending key support levels. We’re not seeing a severe correction phase, but rather an attempt to resume the bullish trend. The influx of liquidity is often the precursor to a broader movement, signaling that the market may have found a local floor before attempting new highs.

Bitcoin (BTC): The $90,000 Battle

The market leader, Bitcoin, is currently trading around $88,703. This price level is crucial. After digesting recent movements, BTC appears to be forming a solid base to attack the major resistance at $90,000. For technical analysts, the current configuration resembles an accumulation phase before a potential upward breakout.

However, the market remains in anticipation of stronger catalysts to validate this rally. To confirm a continuation of the bull run and avoid a fakeout (false bullish signal), Bitcoin must break through $90k with significant volume. If this resistance gives way, the path to a new ATH (All-Time High) could open rapidly, attracting a fresh wave of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) into the market.

Altcoins Lying in Wait: DoubleZero (2Z) Outperforms

As is often the case when Bitcoin stabilizes or climbs gradually, capital begins to flow toward altcoins. In this context, certain assets stand out with above-average market performance. This is the case with DoubleZero (2Z), which shone today with an impressive 9% gain.

This performance by 2Z could be a leading indicator of a broader altcoin awakening. If Bitcoin manages to secure the $90,000 zone without excessive dominance, we could witness a capital rotation favoring a mini-altseason. Investors are now watching whether other major projects will follow DoubleZero’s trajectory or if this movement will remain isolated.
